Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Primary study parametes/endpoint: Prognosis of ID, VB12D and FD in patients with chronic HF. Data on all cause mortality, HF hospitalization or the combined endpoint of both will be collected from the BENEFICIAL database. We will only collect data that were obtained during participation in the BENEFICIAL trial. Follow-up information after this trial will not be taken into consideration. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary study parameters/endpoints: Data will be collected from the BENEFICIAL database to investigate possible relationships between chronic HF patients with/without ID, VB12D or FD, or markers of these deficiencies, on: - Exercise capacity (peak oxygen consumption) - Blood markers (e.g. hemoglobin, markers of inflammation, NT-proBNP, renal function) - Echocardiographic parameters (systolic/diastolic function) - Non-invasive cardiac index (Nexfin) | — |
